Surgery:
We understand the concern that people feel when their pet is facing anesthesia. The veterinarians and staff of CCAH are constantly seeking the best options for your pet. Our hospital protocol for patients undergoing anesthesia includes a presurgical exam, pre-anesthetic blood testing, intravenous catheter placement with fluid support and sophisticated monitoring of blood pressure, core body temperature, respiratory and cardiac function. Our Doctors select Anesthesia protocols based on individual patient requirements. We believe strongly in using multimodal approaches to prevent postop pain and to allow healing to move ahead as quickly as possible. Surgical procedure are performed in our modern surgical suite under sterile conditions, a sterile surgical pack is used for each patient. Our surgery table is heated to prevent hypothermia as a result of lying on a cold table. Click here for surgical FAQs.
Dentistry:
Dental disease not only affects the teeth and bad breath, but impacts quality of life. Poor dental health may lead to potentially life threatening illnesses such as infections of the heart valves and kidneys. We follow hospital protocols for anesthesia, monitoring and pain control. Your pet receives a complete oral exam to identify problems. Digital Dental films are taken of the full mouth to identify problems below the gum line. A plan is made for treatment and you will be called with recommendations for anything over a full cleaning and polishing. An ultrasonic scaler removes plaque above and below the gum line and is followed by full polishing of the exposed teeth.
Radiology:
We have invested in digital radiography. This has brought our radiographs to new level, allowing us to enlarge, highlight, change contrast on any area in the film. We are able to email the radiographs to board certified radiologist for review and a report is often back in our office within 4 hours of the film being taken.
